This is typical of early
Patrick Thomson post cards, incorporating the Edinburgh Coat
of Arms. The view from the
Scott
Monument looks to the west along
Princes Street. On the left hand side of the picture
the path leads through
Princes Street Gardens towards the
National
Galleries.
This postcard is one of a
series published by Patrick Thomson in the early 1900s.
Patrick Thomson's drapery store stood for many years on
the corner of the
Royal
Mile and
South
Bridge, close to the
Tron Kirk.
